give him time.


Is it me or does jack watts look like his limping

Gone down to the rooms....
 

How many of Martin's kicks have been smothered???

He slows down and looks at the ball for AAAAGES before he kicks

He looks like he's in Auskick when he's about to kick the ball. Takes the time to ensure his form is right, but doesn't seem to realize that he is under pressure, and by the time he actually kicks it there's no chance it will ever hit a target

I can't believe you just compared him to Cox. Fair enough, let's look at the whole story and compare them at the same age.

Give him time for what?

Grimes and Tappy done nothing? Not hearing much about them on the radio, Sylvia running at 46% but at least he is getting his hand on the footy

I have been wondering how Dunn would go down back for an extended time- now I know - terrible.


Let's be realistic about Spencer guys, he's probably our 4th or 5th option in the ruck, so if you want to be fair, compare him to someone who's a similar option.

In normal circumstances, the order would be Jamar, Clark (as backup), Martin, Gawn, then toss a coin for Spencer and Fitzpatrick.

He's a depth player, we need them, it would be pointless to have 5 superstar ruckmen and no money for any other players.

all i am saying is he gets a blasting all the time, buit he has played 9 games, how can we judge him yet.

i chose dean cox as arguably the best ruckman in the competition.

if jake ends up even half as good as him we will be happy.

I have been wondering how Dunn would go down back for an extended time- now I know - terrible.

Gotta be time to swap Rivers and Dunn doesn't it?!

score please?

20pts down at half time WYL.

Exactly not fair to compare them, lets try Cox and Jamar and give Jamar a hard time instead


What the [censored] is the point of a video review system if they're just going to make the wrong decision anyway? #burndownaflhouse

And what's the point of it when they have only 1 or 2 angles and can't tell anyway?! We've been robbed 3 times this year now.

 

They've gone over the umpires audio from that goal review, the goal umpire said he believed it was a goal, yet when the video umpire said "inconclusive, umpire's call" the goal umpire calls it a point?!!!!!!

Exactly not fair to compare them, lets try Cox and Jamar and give Jamar a hard time instead

what i am suggesting is he is not doing that bad really, for a 9 games, 3 over the last 2 years. let him have some game time, and he may surprise us and become a great ruckman

we dumped jolly because we thought he wasn't good enough. and he looks pretty good at the filth. lets not judge spencer too early.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
